Lisa Dimmer, MA, LPC

Ms. LISA DIMMER, MS, LPC is a LICENSED PROFESSIONAL COUNSELOR & COACHIndividual Counseling & CoachingMy motto as a therapist is that I stand with the one who stands and says enough!I, too, have a story of trauma and triumph, one with a generational twist. My grandfather was drafted into war as a child and left that war with numerous horrific, never addressed traumas passed on to his family – and down the familial line. Growing up in a dysfunctional family, I often battled anxiety and depression from unresolved traumas. As a child, I struggled in school with several behavioral problems. The constant teasing and bullying by peers and teachers made matters worse. Later in my education, I decided that I could do better and became a high-strung, stressed-out, overachiever constantly worrying about everything.In college, I lost an aunt on whom I performed CPR. This event was a pivotal turning point for me. I entered therapy and began unraveling past and present traumas that held me …back from being me and made me afraid to step forward. I took a stand, saying enough was enough and setting some boundaries. Therapy helped me re-write some old scripts playing in my head around being unworthy. I opened my heart, made friends, began dating, and had more fun. I was still a high-achieving student, just not so high-strung!I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Metropolitan State College of Denver with a degree in psychology and delivered the graduating speech. I continued my education in graduate school, where I attended Naropa University, a three-year program dedicated to eastern and western methods of self-reflection and therapeutic process. After Naropa, I engaged in another round of therapy – sometimes, it takes more than one. This round helped me become who I truly wanted to be but had trouble finding through the weeds of the past.SACRED JOURNEY COUNSELINGTargeted therapy for women, wherever they are on their journeyMy focus is on you, where you feel stuck now, and where your heart desires to be.Though the details of your story of adversity may differ from those above, the pain of suffering is universal.
